First Day of School!!!

Yeah!! Back to school time! The kids were so ready for this! My kids absolutely love school and could not wait to get back. Lets hope they have this same attitude toward school for a long time (knock on wood). Lily was most excited to ride the bus to school this year with her brother! Jake said to me, "Mom, I will sit with her on the bus for a few weeks until she finds some friends and then she is on her own!" What a silly kid! I put them on the bus first thing in the morning and then hopped in the car to meet Lily at school for her first day of kindergarten. She loves her teacher and is excited about being back at John Ross again. Brenna and her are lucky and get to be in the same class! She wanted to sit by her cousin and was a little upset when the teacher wanted them separated. Oh well, life goes on! We got the teacher we wanted for Lily and Jacob got a new teacher new at the school! Lily's teacher has taught at this school for like 35 years or something and is the sweetest. We are excited!

Ready to go!

It was raining really hard while we were waiting for the bus!

Lily was so excited!

Lily outside her new classroom!

Her new seat!

Leif just being Leif and patiently waiting!

Circle time! Lily really wanted to sit by Brenna but they are so close!

Time to say bye to the parents! No big deal to Lily!

I snuck past Jacob's classroom and snapped a shot! He was funny and did not want to really acknowledge me. I did get a little smile from him!

Cannon and Leif held hands most of the way out to the car! What a couple of cuties! Love them to death!

I looooooooooove her outfit! She is such a little diva! Can you believe our girls are soooo big!

I love that you put her on the bus and then met her up there! :)

I still think it's crazy that Brenna and Lily are in the same class! That's got to be fun.

I wanted to take a picture of Zack, but I thought he'd get embarrassed. Did Jake act like he was too cool for mom yesterday???

Leif looks like he's ready to go to school with the big kids already!

Cute kids Heather! Looks like they had a fun first day. I can't believe Lily's hair with those curlers-- I will have to give it a try.

She looked so cute! And I am so glad they have each other. Makes the transition so much easier for my shy little girl. And the teacher seems AWESOME! Woo-hoo!

We get to do this tomorrow. It makes it so much easier when the kids are excited for school.
